Welcome to Beloved Labs....Providing Soulmates of the Labrador Kind.

We are Kevin and Kristan Olson, we are located in Northern Mn., just a few minutes from the majestic Lake of the Woods. We are a stones throw away from Manitoba and Ontari, Canada. We keep a small kennel that is devoted to breeding English Labrador Retrievers with heavy English attributes. We are licensed through the Minnesota Board of Animal Health and take great pride in our Labs themselves, our breeding program as well as our facility. The English Labrador disposition is charming and calm but make no mistake, they also have a very obedient and balanced drive in the field. Our finest hunting dog is our English lab, Boaz who has earned his SH title The first priority in our Labrador breeding program is the health and temperament of our English Labradors. Improving the bloodlines in our Labs is very important to us, but we know if your Lab puppy isn’t healthy his pedigree means nothing. Our labs are individuals and as such they display a character and personality all their own; however that being said we breed them with low key temperaments and obedience in mind. Our labs are bred for companion dogs, personal gundogs, therapy dogs, and good looking Labrador Retrievers with competitive potential in both the show ring and the field. We will never breed a dog that doesn't meet our standard of excellence. Our labradors are genetically sound, you can see in our lines that our Labs carry the heavy bone structure, blocky heads and beautiful coats that the English Labrador is known for. Overall, our English labs carry prominent bloodlines that provide a beautiful balance of calm pet companion with the potential to be outstanding personal gundogs and very often become therapy dogs. At the end of the day, a Labrador is a Labrador and no other breed has a disposition as agreeable, gentle and pleasant, however, the time, love and research we put into our breeding program shows up in all of our puppies.

We encourage communication through phone calls, emails and text messaging and when you decide you want your next lab puppy to come from us we also want you to see our kennel set up and meet your puppy's parents. We want you to have a a good feeling about Kevin and I as people, Beloved Labs as a Kennel and our breeding program as a whole. We have a long list of goasl we want to achieve but one of our number ones is to make sure even before you have your pup in your arms you will feel confident about both Kevin and I as not just quality Labrador breeders but the kind of people you can trust. We have purchased quite a few Labs and we know how important it is to feel at peace about your puppy's first 8 weeks in this world. One of the best parts of owning and running a reputable breeding program is the wonderful people we meet and the friends we make!

Labrador Kennel in Northern Minnesota

Sparky, Tucker and Hudson

We find great value in being a small Labrador kennel in Northern Minnesota because it allows our Labs to behave like dogs. We believe even AKC Labs with champion bloodlines and superb health and temperaments should have the opportunity to run, swim, retrieve and be loved. Our English Labradors are way more than "breeding dogs",in fact that's a very small part of their life, they are our family and we treat them that way. They spend as little time as possible in our kennel building, they are outside in the yard as much as possible. They also spend a lot of time down at the pond, they never leave our premises because they have no reason to...this is their home and they love us as much as we love them. Socializing our puppies comes quite easy to us here at Beloved Labs, being that we have been blessed with a brood of grandchildren. Remaining a small kennel awards our Labs the opportunity to run freely in our large yard and fields, to swim in the ponds, to ride along in the Ranger, nap on the deck and get into doggy mischief! We hope as you visit our website you will get a feeling for who we are, sensing our true nature and our honesty. We want to make sure both our adult labs and our lab puppies have the kind of love only a Labrador owner can give, that's why it's important to us to only have as many Labs as we can properly care for o

Labrador Breeders in Northern Minnesota

You're never to young to get familiar with the duck boat!

Here at Beloved Labs, we take an honest pride in our Labrador adults as well as our Lab puppies and we put as much love into the puppies we sell as we do the pups we keep. We socialize our pups the old fashion way. Grandchildren! All of our pups are squeezed, cuddled, rough housed with and just plain ol' loved on. We believe the socialization Lab puppies receive during their first 12 weeks has just as much of an impact on the puppy's temperament as genetics, and that's why we handle them and love on them the way you would. We are sure this genuine, loving, hands on approach is why the puppy you go home with begins to fall in love with you the moment he is in your arms. So please, be assured our Lab puppies will be happy and well-adjusted when we leave us to be with you.
